- Sainmhíniú "a class of drugs (mainly for the treatment of hypertension and of congestive heart failure) that inhibit the activity of angiotension converting enzyme (ACE [ IATE:125115 ]) and therefore decrease the production of angiotensin II. As a result of the lower levels of angiotensin II produced, the blood vessels enlarge or dilate, and blood pressure is reduced." Tagairt "Based on: MedicineNet.com, Health and Medical Information produced by doctors, http://www.medicinenet.com/ace_inhibitors/article.htm and On-line Medical Dictionary, http://cancerweb.ncl.ac.uk/cgi-bin/omd?query=angiotensin+converting+enzyme+inhibitor&action=Search+OMD [1.6.2007]"
- Nóta "Drugs which prevent angiotensin II from binding with its receptors (AT1) on the surface of the cells are called ""angiotensin-receptor blockers"" [ IATE:2224770 ]"

- Sainmhíniú médicaments, utilisés surtout contre l'hypertension, qui inhibent, entre autres, la synthèse de l'angiotensine II (un puissant vasoconstricteur) , à partir de l'angiotensine I. La suppression de l'effet vasoconstricteur de l'angiotensine II induit une baisse de la pression artérielle.
